Sgt. O'Hare : Mrs Carstairs, the Lieutenant here is a great admirer of your books.
Dinah Carstairs : Oh really, which one did you like best Lieutenant?
Lt. Bill Smith : [discomfited] Er...... ..latest one, Mrs Carstairs. I thought it was excellent.
Dinah Carstairs : Oh, so you liked the Maltese Falcon?
Lt. Bill Smith : Yes, yes, that's the one.
Dinah Carstairs : Lieutenant, that was written by Dashiell Hammet, about twelve years ago. I don't think you've ever read any of my books.
Lt. Bill Smith : [sheepish] I'm afraid you're right.
Sgt. O'Hare : Not being a married man, Mrs Carstairs, the Lieutenant ain't a very convincing liar!
